Transgender people are frequently subjected to workplace discrimination. However, acknowledging the value of transgender talent, many organizations claim to have proactive policies to manage them. The study investigated the perception regarding organizations support received by trans people. Eighty-four respondents who were the employees of diverse formal workplaces in India who self-identified as Trans or Gender Non-Binary and were over 18 years were taken as sample. The snowball sampling technique used for data collection. The collected data was collected through personal interviews, online internet interviews, or both. The data collection period was between March to August 2019. The study concluded that although a majority of the respondents were satisfied with their jobs, they were unaware of the policies for the third gender. Many believed that their employer did not help them foster a non-discriminatory workplace for trans employees. The findings highlighted the problems faced by trans people. It is suggested that organizations should devise and effectively implement policies pertaining to trans genders to attract this talent. They should respect and protect the privacy of their employees and provide a conducive working environment.  |
